Chapter 2: Overview
2. Overview
2.1 Introduction
The Wireless Video Presentation System (AC1132A) turns your existing “wired” projector into a “high-end wireless” projector. The
unit’s plug-and-show wireless projection features provide efficient and successful presentation.
High-Performance Wireless Projection and Audio Projection
This high-performance wireless projection system with audio enables you to share a multimedia display with several users without
using cable.
Plug and Show
With the accompanying plug-and-show USB token, wireless presentation becomes easy. Just link your PC/laptop to the AC1132A
(through WLAN or Ethernet), plug the token into a USB port, and in seconds, your screen will project to the connected projector.
4-to-1 Split-Screen Projection
With this 4-to-1 split-screen feature, up to four PC screens can be projected to one projector in the same time. You can easily do
side-by-side comparison from four PC/PDAs.
1-to-4 Screen Projection
With 1-to-4 screen projection, you can project PC content out to up to four screens at the same time through AC1132A devices.
The 1-to-4 screen projection feature functions both under presentation mode and video mode.
